{"product_id":"9781781682319","title":"Left Hemisphere: Mapping Contemporary Theory","description":"As the crisis of capitalism unfolds, the need for alternatives is felt ever more intensely. The struggle between radical movements and the forces of reaction will be merciless. A crucial battlefield, where the outcome of the crisis will in part be decided, is that of theory. Over the last twenty-five years, radical intellectuals across the world have produced important and innovative ideas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe endeavour to transform the world without falling into the catastrophic traps of the past has been a common element uniting these new approaches. This book – aimed at both the general reader and the specialist – offers the first global cartography of the expanding intellectual field of critical contemporary thought. More than thirty authors and intellectual currents of every continent are presented in a clear and succinct manner. A history of critical thought in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries is also provided, helping situate current thinkers in a broader historical and sociological perspective.","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47114621255920,"sku":"9781781682319","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781781682319_p0.jpg?v=1763717248","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781781682319","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
